Your Primary was ‘The Otter’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was born into it and have been faithful ever since.

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Children Ministries at Northland, Longwood FL, and Salty Church, Ormond Beach FL

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

My parents are good people. They loved and honored their parents and families and passed on this loved of the family to me.

Attending business school in New York City. It expanded my horizon of life and the world.

Traveling the world for my job. I learned to embrace different cultures and thinking.

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Getting divorced. Making the decision to get married is a very important one. Marry someone you love, respect, and are compatible with all aspects.

Losing my job twice. Working for a bully and an elitist was very hard for me to do. I learned that if I do not respect my supervisor, I could not do a good job.

Failing to get pregnant/have a child. Not that I regret havign a child, I’m sad that I tried and failed. I waited unitl I was 40 to get preganant; I focued on ym career instead.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

Putting Your Spouse First
Your Kids Second
Everyone Else After those

3. A free art museum or jazz institution for people to learn about art or this great form of music.

4. A school to teach kids about subjects and application to real life.

5. A free fitness facility to focus on eating well (cooking) and keeping fit. The goal: to wipe out obesity.
